Laendler

Waltz · 3/4 · G major

Laendler is a traditional folk dance and instrumental tune type from the Alpine regions of Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. Set in 3/4 meter and usually in major keys such as G major, it features a lively, rustic character traditionally accompanied by stomping and figure dancing. Because its exact historical origins are obscure and predate specific composer attributions, the music is best characterized by its earthy peasant roots and foundational influence on the later development of the classical waltz.
